“Misfits” are the disruptors, change agents, creative thinkers and doers whose non-traditional paths uniquely position them to transform businesses.

We are matchmakers for the modern age, connecting innovative talent from around the world with like-minded companies who will recognize and provide opportunities to realize their collective full potential.

Creating an ideal pairing is not about casting the widest net; rather, it's about designing the right one. We partner with clients to understand their core business, growth plans and ambitions to help refine – and create – the key roles that will drive their success.

With leadership in New York, Austin and Lisbon, our clients and their talent needs are as diverse as the global network we represent. We work across a wide range of industries with companies big and small, specializing in leadership roles in innovation, marketing, technology, operations, creative direction, experience and design.

Some of our partners include: CHANEL, Diageo, Done + Dusted, Droga5, Estée Lauder, Evolved by Nature, Gimlet Media, TED Inc, Philips, Proximo, Proto, Revel, T Brand Studio, The Washington Post, The Webbys, Tishman Speyer, Unilever, ustwo and Work&Co.
